Embedded Files
This is a page that will be updated periodically. Below are some resources for you to use to create videos for your classes. Please contact your campus IT girl with any questions.
Your Phone-you can use your phone at home to make videos for class. You may need to get a phone tripod in order to do so. Remember to keep videos short. Longer videos will take a lot of time to upload and/download and will definitely be different depending on your internet connectivity.
How to add to Google Drive
Use a charger cord to plug into Chromebook or computer. Move the video file into your drive.
Download the Google Drive or Google Classroom app onto your phone and directly upload.
